Hmmm...interesting. I didn't get any advice since most people didn't know it was going to happen till it did (myself included
) I did get a lot of "are you crazy?" Even my lawyer said "Are you sure you want to do this? You've already raised your kids, let someone else "fix this" He redeemed himself later (somewhat) when the judge had questions as to why this child was being adopted yet again and he said "these parents have something special to give the child" SO advice i didn't give but my very best buds, after getting over the initial shock would remind me "Your a great mom and he's a great kid, ya are going to be just fine"
